Buying the right trampoline

When you’re buying a trampoline you want something that is safe, sturdy and long lasting, but it can be hard to know which is best. Here at Early Learning Centre we got together with Plum to guide you through the different types of trampolines and accessories so you find the ideal one to give your children endless hours of entertainment in the garden.

A guide to happy bouncing

Trampolines range in price, size and style so you’ll want to do your research before you commit to buy. But which one should you choose? We got together with Plum, one of the top trampoline suppliers in the industry, to help you find the right one, for you, your children and your outdoor space.

The complete package

You should always buy a trampoline with a safety enclosure. The safety enclosure acts as a barrier to stop your little treasures falling and also encourages children to bounce towards the centre of the mat, away from the springs and frame. All Plum trampolines are supplied with this safety feature.

Bouncing extras

Adding a set of steps or a ladder to your trampoline will make it easier for little legs to climb on and off (and help you make quick getaway when you’re having a sneaky bounce!). However it is important to remove the ladder w hen the trampoline is not in use and always remember that adult supervision is required. An anchor kit is also a good idea to secure your trampoline to the ground. Some safety mats around the perimeter of your trampoline can help to soften any impromptu exits if you’re not using an enclosure.

Remember, children should always be supervised by an adult when using a trampoline.
